your fees send a message about your firm.

by loren fogelman
the holistic guide to wealth management

setting your fees appropriately is one of the primary challenges that accounting professionals face. according to mckinsey, 80 to 90 percent of services are priced too low. throughout my career, i too have found that most firm owners don’t know how much to charge for their services – and too often they undercharge.

embrace artificial intelligence in your accounting practice.

by jackie meyer
the balanced millionaire: advisor edition

in today’s rapidly evolving landscape, technologies like artificial intelligence (ai), natural language processing (nlp) and advanced large language models (llms, the brains behind tools like chatgpt) are no longer futuristic concepts – they’re here now, and they’re incredibly powerful. integrating ai into your tech stack can revolutionize your practice, freeing up time, enhancing client service, and providing insights that would be hard to get manually.

it might sound a bit abstract or even hype-y, so let’s break it down in practical terms for an accounting and tax advisory firm.

what are ai, nlp and llms?

  • artificial intelligence: ai is a broad term for machines or software that mimic human intelligence processes. this includes learning from data (so they improve over time), reasoning to make decisions or predictions, and self-correcting when they get things wrong. in practice, ai can be as simple as an email spam filter (which “learns” what spam looks like by example), or as complex as an autonomous vehicle. in our context, think of ai as tools that can analyze data or perform tasks in a humanlike way – but at computer speed and scale.

bissett bullet: look to the future

today’s bissett bullet: “in writing a proposal for a potential client, it serves us to remember that they want us to help them create history more than record it.”

by martin bissett

because we are so used to providing compliance work, we are used to looking in the rear-view mirror. our prospective client, however, wants to look out of the windshield to where we are going. so, let us make sure that our proposals represent a forward-looking view more than they do a historical-looking view. the prospective client takes the recording of the past as a given. they want to know where they are going with us in charge.

today’s to-do:

today the action point is this. before a meeting with a prospective client, make sure that our agenda is future-focused, not historically focused.
